Chapter 41 Past Life and Present Life
Chapter 41 Past Life and Present Life
"The Divine Forging Method in the Primordial Furnace!"
The reward Shi Zhao received this time was exactly the other half of the primordial mystic technique he had obtained when he first broke the record.
She pieced the two fragments of bone together, and sure enough, it was the same scripture.
Unfortunately, it is still incomplete, missing some parts.
It contains only a few hundred words, but every single word is significant.
This scripture is titled "The Primordial Furnace Forges the Spirit," and its origin is unknown. It describes how the spirit is forged and strengthened through "furnace fire."
Ultimately, the Yuan Furnace must refine and cultivate the purest and most vigorous primordial spirit thoughts, like the bright moon hanging in the night sky, like the blazing sun shining on all things.
Shi Zhao quickly grasped the meaning. She had already obtained half of the text, and now that she could see the whole text, it was a natural process without any hindrance.
Within her sea of consciousness, her primordial spirit transformed into a primordial furnace, its spiritual fire burning fiercely, burning away wisps of "impurities" into ash, making her divine sense increasingly pure and powerful.
"What a wonderful method! It has actually transformed my spirit, and I am about to open my third eye."
The girl's long, curled eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her eyes suddenly opened, revealing a pair of bright eyes as dazzling as a galaxy.
A brilliant purple-gold light flashed across her forehead, shining brightly.
Then, as if she had noticed something, Shi Zhao raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Hehehe, run! Why did you stop running?"
Two panting old men surrounded her from the front and back, one of whom, an old man with a five-colored bird perched on his shoulder, was speaking menacingly.
Hmm, he has a real villainous vibe.
After all, what kind of good person would start swearing like that?
"This little brat can run quite a bit, she's worn out this old man!" Grandpa Jingbi pointed at her, still panting, and said irritably.
Shi Zhao's expression remained unchanged. He quietly took half a step back, shook his head, and said, "You two are too attached to appearances. It's not that I'm running away, but that your minds are in turmoil."
"What are you babbling about? Pay up!" Bird Master shouted with a dark face.
"I have no money." Shi Zhao shrugged, spreading his little hands, as if to say, "Whatever."
Grandpa Jingbi didn't utter any harsh words. Instead, he stared intently at the girl, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper, and his old eyes, which had become less cloudy, became even more profound.
Seemingly stimulated by the record he had just broken, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and even his demeanor changed, giving off a transcendent and otherworldly feeling.
At first glance, it really does have a bit of an ethereal air about it.
"What's wrong with you?" Bird Master was also startled and couldn't help but ask.
Grandpa Jingbi seemed to wake from a dream. The otherworldly and dignified aura he had just exuded vanished, and he reverted to his old self, though his brows remained furrowed as he racked his brains to recall what he had just learned.
"Why do I feel like I've seen her somewhere before?" he said thoughtfully.
"Nonsense, I ran into you a few years ago..." Bird rolled his eyes.
Grandpa Jingbi nodded first, then shook his head. Suddenly, his old eyes darted around, revealing the appearance of a wise and enlightened person.
He looked up to the sky and sighed, "After a dream spanning countless years, only today do I realize who I am. Young friend, it was just a misunderstanding; please don't take it to heart."
"Who am I, and who is me? My heart is clouded, but now I suddenly remember some unusual things." Bird Master nodded repeatedly.
He was so shrewd that he knew his old friend was planning to take advantage of the young girl, so he cooperated and put on a show.
Shi Zhao was also somewhat uncertain, because she knew that these two guys really were the souls of immortal kings, but they had been separated from their bodies for too long and had lost themselves.
If they actually regain some of their memories, that would be incredible.
But soon, she keenly noticed a sly smile on the lips of the two old men.
"..."
So you're still playing yourself?
Sometimes knowing too much isn't a good thing; it can make you overthink.
Shi Zhao's eyes flickered slightly, and a plan immediately came to mind.
"Congratulations! The two fellow Daoists have finally come to understand their past lives. In that case, my task is complete." She raised her fair chin, a faint smile playing on her lips, appearing serene and otherworldly.
With a hum, a galaxy appeared, enveloping the girl within it.
Seven large stars floated behind her, with chaotic energy rising and auspicious clouds surrounding her, making her appear like a celestial being descending to earth.
Bird Master and Jingbi Grandpa were dumbfounded. They spent all their time swindling and cheating in the Void God Realm, but they were actually fooled this time.
"You, who are you?" Grandpa Jingbi couldn't help but ask.
Shi Zhao chuckled inwardly, but sighed softly on the surface, saying, "Fellow Daoist has been lost for far too long. Now that some long-sealed memories have been unlocked, you don't even remember me?"
"Ahem, of course I remember. We were very close back then, practically best friends!" Birdie lied through his teeth, figuring that going along with the story wouldn't make any mistakes.
"Of course we are good friends. In the past, you and I were both kings among immortals. Fellow Daoist was the second best in the Dragon Clan, only losing to a true dragon by half a move. Another fellow Daoist was also a Yellow Dao Immortal Golden Spirit Transformation, with an extremely strong and indestructible body. As for me, I am the ancient immortal ancestral spirit... uh, my good friend."
Shi Zhao spoke without hesitation, revealing the two men's past. She really wanted to know if revealing their background would trigger an awakening within her.
But as she finished speaking, she subconsciously glanced at the sky and quickly retracted a somewhat dangerous statement.
Upon hearing this, the two old men were both taken aback, their gazes becoming bewildered, yet their aura grew stronger and stronger, acquiring a transcendent air, as if they did not belong to the mortal world.
"They were really provoked?" Shi Zhao was startled and quickly took off with his long legs, quietly leaving while the two were still in a daze.
I'm outta here!
In the second ancestral land, the young girl pushed open the door, stretched her waist, smiled faintly, and concealed her merits and fame.
Within a few days, news of Shi Yi breaking records in the Void God Realm reached the border regions.
The entire Stone Kingdom was shaken, which undoubtedly confirmed the legend that those with double pupils were born gods and were destined to become gods and roam freely throughout the six directions and eight wastelands.
However, another piece of news followed, which also caused a huge uproar.
On the same day that Shi Yi broke the record, another person also broke two records, one of which was set by himself a few years ago.
All the major powers have issued orders to find that mysterious person.
Many people believe that he is not too old and is a genius of his time, perhaps even able to rival those with double pupils. He is definitely worth the greatest effort to win him over.
"Investigate, we must find out exactly who it is, we can't miss anything."
"We must find out who it is. Since they chose to break the record on the same day as Yi'er, it must have been intentional. They are very likely to become our enemies in the future."
Some people from the Wu King's Mansion and the Rain Clan didn't look too good. They had worked hard to create momentum for Shi Yi's birth, but now it seemed that their limelight had been stolen by someone else.
Meanwhile, in the western frontier, some members of the Rain Clan are heading towards the second ancestral land of the Stone Kingdom.
